Also close by is Thorvaldséen's Museum, which
houses the art collection of Danish sculptor Bertel Thor-
valdsen (1770-1844).

Then there's Rosenborg Castle, where the Crown

LEARN HISTORY

Near Amalienborg Palace, official residence of Queen
Matgrethe H, is the Medical History Museum, where
visitors can see the equipment used in medicine and
dentistry through the ages.

Copenh is well-k for its por and the
Bing and Grondahl museum on Vesterbrogade shows
samples of this maker's line of procelain dating from 1853.
As well, The Royal Copenhagen Porcelain factory at
Smallegrade 45 in Frederiksberg offers public tours
during which visitors are shown how Royal Copenhagen
wares are manufactured.

Royal Copenhagen porcelain was founded in 1775 by
a Danish chemist, F.H. Muller. He was supported by the
Danish royal family who wanted to see Denmark develop
a porcelain industry on a par with those of other
European countries.

The real breakthrough in the eyes of the world came
in 1868 with the underglaze technique, which has since
been adapted by porcelain makers around the world.

On a tour of the factory, visitors are shown the
manufacturing process from the raw porcelain material
being removed from the individual molds to glazing and
the final stages of painting, all done carefully by hand.

almond paste.

+ meats; crunchy vegetables and cheeses.

For inexpensive meals, try cafes in and around the
pedestrian area and City Hall Square. You can eat well
for about 50-60 kroner (about $7.50 Canadian). A Danish
hot dog at a polser (hot dog) stand might set you back all
of 8-10 kroner.

Many restaurants offer the Dan menu, a two-course
meal of traditional Danish food for 60 kroner. Dinner at a
moderately priced restaurant may run about 150 kroner a
person.

Most serve traditional Danish specialities, such as
the koldt bord (cold buffet), but visitors should not be
surprised to find Italian, English and even Oriental fare.

BOASTS ELEGANCE

Tivoli Gardens boasts the elegant first-class res-
taurants Divan 2, Perlen and Belle Terrasse, where it
costs about 260 kroner a person for high quality Danish
and international cuisine.

The Royal Copenhagen store in the pedestrian pre-
cinct has a white ‘and pastel blue tea-room built in the
style of the 1780s. They serve breads, cookies and fancy
cakes with coffee, tea, hot chocolate, liqueur or brandy.

Among the more delicious pastries is marling-
tontaerte, a cake covered with almond paste, iced with
chocolate and topped with glazed pecans. The Sarah
Bernhardt is a layering of almong paste and chocolate
mousse iced with chocolate.

On the lighter side is a ristaerte, a custardy rice
pudding over a thin crust covered with slivered almonds.

And of course, there's real Danish pastry. Actually,
the Danes say this delightful treat originated in Vienna,
so they call it wienerbrod.

The buttery, flaky pastry comes stuffed with pureed
fruit or sweetened cheese fillings, with chocolate or

Harrods has it all

By BRIAN CATHCART
LONDON (REUTER) — Harrods has supplied an
leph for President Reagan, dresses for Diana,

VENICE (CP) — Imagine a city with no cars — the
silence, the clear air, easy walking. And narrow, twisting
alleys and peeling palaces in fading shades of pink, green
and ochre.

That's Venice, the city on the water. Founded in AD
811 by Italians fleeing invaders, Venice is built on 117
islands. and now has a population of about 300,000.

It’s a small city, always flooded with tourists, but a
meadering visitor with a good guidebook finds many
pleasures.

There are two ways to get around — on foot, crossing
Venice's 400 bridges, or by boat on its 150 canals. A
detailed map is a must, but resign yourself to the
pleasure of getting lost.

If you're in a hurry, take one of the “vaporetti,” the
boat buses which run up and down the Grand Canal. The
fare is 1,500 lire ($1.50).

Everyone flocks to the Piazza San Marco, the
rectangular heart of the city. Its colonnades throng with
tourists, many of whom line up to drink cappuccino at the
famous Florian or Quadri cafes with their orchestras.

MOSAICS EXQUISITE

At one end of the piazza lies the 12th-century church
of St. Mark, whose interior domes glow with exquisite
mosaics.

The Doges Palace, with its geometrical pink-and-
white facade, is next door. Once the seat of government,
it has many fine paintings, and the Grand Council
Chamber measuring 52 metres by 23 metres.

Behind the palace the Bridge of Sighs leads to a
prison. It was so named for the prisoners who sighed as
they saw their last glimpse of freedon as they crossed.

A must-see is the Accademia, with works by
Tintoretto, Bellini and other venetian painters. For

Venice: city on water

contrast visit’the Peggy Guggenheim Museum with
works by modern international artists such as Salvador
Dali and Rene Magritte.

Be adventurous when shopping in Venice. Prices in
the back streets for glass beads, figurines and goblets
area third less than at the Piazzo San Marco. Other finds
include elaborate masks from the February carnival and
millefiori paperweights and jewelry.

CLOTHING EXPENSIVE

Clothes and shoes are excellent quality but
conservative and expensive compared with other Italian
cities. One good bet for younger tastes is Coin, a small
department store near the Campo San Bartolomeo.
Standa and Upim are low-priced, all-purpose stores
excellent for cotton clothing.

The Ponte Rialto is lined with linen and jewelry
stores; across it lies the market with hand-knit mohair
sweaters at $25 and $8 silk ties.

Those who prefer silent, ancient beauty should visit
the Palazzo Fortuny, the former home and studio of
Mariano Fortuny, a 20th-century Spanish designer of
textiles and theatre lighting. This 16th-century palazzo
offers his paintings and textiles in hopeless disarray.

Of the many fine churches in Venice, two of the best
are San Giorgio Maggiore and the Chiesa del Redentore.

The city isn’t known for fine food, but do try the
excellent Paradiso perdutl on the Campamento della
Misericordia. For $10 and up per person you can enjoy
such pleasures as whole-wheat pasta with fres!
vegetables. °

As the sun sets, take a ride in a gondola, but expect.
to pay $30 for the ride. Get out at Marry's Bar for a drink
or splurge on dessert at the deluxe Gritti Palace Hotel, a
former private palazzo.

Princess of Wales, and crockery for the Sultan of Oman.
But its chairman, Aleck Craddock, insists it’s not a store
just for the wealthy.

Turnover last year, he points out, exceeded $280
million — a British record for a single store — “and you
don't do that just with top people.”

The huge London department store, famed as the
supplier of everything from mousetraps to elephants, has
long been a favored by royalty.

But, Craddock says: “Most of our customers are very
ordinary people. After all, you don’t have to have a high
income to enjoy good things.”

And good things are what Harrods is all about.

The business started by Henry Charles Harrod in
1849 as a grocer's shop in Knightsbridge today has a
worldwide reputation for quality and service that earns it
$56 million a year in export sales.

For tourists in London, it is a recognized stage on the
trail around the sights, like Buckingham Palace and
Madame Tussaud’s waxworks. .

Some 30,000 people pass through the doors each day
and 150,000 have accounts at the store. The Queen, her
husband, Prince Philip, her mother and her eldest son all
buy Harrods wares and the store has royal warrants to
prove it.

DIANA BUYS DRESS

When Diana, then Lady Diana Spencer, wanted an
outfit for the day of her engagement to Prince Charles
was to be announced, she went to Harrods.

When, in the 1970s, an unknown benefactor wanted
to present presidential candidate Ronald Reagan with an
elephant — the symbol of his Republican party — he went
to Harrods.

The Sultan of Oman went to Harrods when he
wanted a 1,000-piece dinner service, press reports say.

And on a sombre note, when Irish Republican Army
terrorists wanted a target for a Christmas car bomb
attack to shock public opinion, they picked Harrods.

The blast last year killed six people and injured 90.

“Most of the world knows Harrods — that is borne
out in the recent terrible incident because the letters we

have had came literally from all over the world,” Crad-

part — the majestic, turn-of-the-century building, its vast
facade picked out in white lights, houses 215 departments
manned by 2,000 sales staff.

The huge floorspace, totalling nearly two hectares,
allows the food department, for example, to stock 130
types of bread, 168 brands of whisky and 500 kinds of
cheese.

SELLS QUALITY

But in the age of the suburban superstore, size alone
cannot be the explanation. For Craddock, now in his 30th
year at Harrods, the answer lies in simple traditions of
selling quality merchandise, giving good service and
keeping up with the times.

There is also uniqueness, he says. “There is only one
Harrods in the world, that's very important because it

makes it a mecca.” In fact, there is another Harrods in
Buenos Aires, but the two stores have had no links for
decades.

Plans in the past to open Harrods branches in New
York and Paris have, to the chairman's relief, been
dropped. “Initially it would make money, but you would
lose some of the uniqueness, and in no way should we
water down what we do in Knightsbridge,” he says.

For the same reason the Harrods name, in its dis-
tinetive green and gold livery, is increasingly used in the
store's own promotions, but is never sold for others to use
under franchise.

There has been speculation that Lonrho, the
industrial and commercial conglomerate, might sell its
30-per-cent stake in the House of Fraser, owners of
Harrods for an asking price of $280 million, 50 per cent
above its current market value.

Shares in Fraser have risen 10 per cent on rumors
that Sears Holdings, the British retail giant that owns
Selfridge’s — London's second largest department store
— might bid for Lonrho's stake or for the entire group.

But whatever happens, Craddock is confident that
Harrods will go on being exclusively Harrods of Knights-
bridge, and that those who want to buy their wares from
the people who supply the Queen will continue to travel
to London's West End to do so.

Man behind
Noranda

By KEN SMITH
TORONTO (CP) — A decade ago, muses Alfred
Powis; much of the world was stewing over when the
world would run out of natural resources. Not if — when.
The gloom was chiefly due to a doleful outlook from
the so-called Club of Rome, a high-class, well-heeled
international think tank that seemed to enjoy wearing
hair shirts instead of Saville Row suits. Its prediction was
about the end of this century.
What's happened since then?
Thinking has changed, chuckles Powis who, as
chairman of resources-rich Noranda Mines Ltd., is in a
position to know.
New pockets of resources are being found and
developed around the world, and not always in
out-of-the-way places. Take the Hemlo agid field as an
example.

This find, considered likely to prove the biggest
Canada has seen since the hits in the Timmins, Ont., area
near the start of this century and in which Noranda is a
major player, lies in northwestern Ontario and is crossed
by the Trans-Canada Highway and the main CP Rail line.

“Can you imagine how many millions of people
passed over that gold?And it was just sitting there.”

Powis shakes his head and is quiet for a moment,
considering. He's quickly roused when asked about the
threat of foreign competition, especially from Third
World countries, for minerals and forest products —
another area of natural resources in which Noranda has a
major stake.

‘LOOK AT COPPER’

“Well, let's look at copper as an example,” he says.
“We've been competing for about four decades with Chile
and Africa, not to mention the United States, and we
haven't done badly.

“I don't see any reason to be frightened of the
future.”

Nevertheless, Powis concedes that the last couple of
years have been pretty much a disaster. During those
years, Noranda recorded losses for the first time since
the company started mining ore in 1928.

The 1982 loss was $82.9 million after a profit of
$164.8 million the previous year. In 1983, the loss was
$34.6 million.

“No one recognized in 1981 the troubles that were on
the horizon. But 1982, especially the last half, was the

its.”
, Powis says the tough years didn’t change his work
Joad — he puts in 11 or 12 hours a day at his desk or in
conferences — but they did affect his approach.

“We had to look very hard at our costs, like all
industries in Canada during the recession.”

Powis moves around a lot, keeping an eye on
Noranda’s far-flung interests. He's out in Vancouver once
a month to check on forestry operations.

Two or three times a year, he jets to Britain to check
on mining and manufcaturing plants.

OPERATES MINE

Noranda operates the world’s largest fluorspar mine
in that country.

Powis, 53, was born in Montreal. From 1961 to 1955,
he worked in the investment department of Sun Life
Assurance Co. of Canada Ltd.

“I was made responsible for Sun Life's investments
in mining and in the course of that, I had visited Noranda.
I was offered a job at twice the money I was making —
more money than I thought I'd ever see.”

By 1968, he had worked his way up to president of
Noranda and in 1977, he was elected chairman and chief
executive officer.

He works outside Noranda, too, having served as
chairman of the Conference Board of Canada, but he says
he likes to spread these other jobs around so he has time
to work on them effectively without ruining his spare
time.

Powis and his wife — they have two sons and a
daughter — live on a farm near Toronto. 5

“I lease the property out to someone who can work
it, but it’s a nice peaceful spot to go from the office.”

For relaxation, he swims, plays tennis and, in winter,

goes cross-country skiing.

Future plans?

“That's simple,” he says with an easy grin. “Bring
Noranda back to a profitable base.”

Havoc

PRINCE GEORGE (CP) — Picket line scuffles, an
alleged shooting and a stormy demonstration have made a
19-week strike at a Canadian Tire store one of the most
bitter in this city's history.

And the dispute over a first contract for Local 1518 of
the Retail Clerks Union shows no sign of ending. The union
and store owner Tom Steadman say they won't compromise
on the issue of whether the store's 92 employees should be
foreed to join the union.

The store was opened in 1982 and the union was cer-
tified last . Forty-five employees went on strike
Dec. 5.

“This has all the makings of a classic confrontation,”
says Jack Allard, the local's secretary-treasurer. “It’s an
old-fashioned union-shot fight. It will go on for months and
months.”

Mediation talks broke down last month and no new talks

A thick RCMP file on picket line incidents is topped

rules in

with the claim fnom a supervisor that her car was shot at
while she was driving from work. However, the police lab
couldn't find any traces of a bullet in the car door.

On March 31, a protest march by 370 union supporters
turned violent. Five people were charged with willful
damage after cars trying to cross the picket line were
damaged. A protest organizer said some people who crossed
the picket line several times appeared to be trying to
provoke incidents.

‘FACT OF LIFE’

Allard says union security may be foreign to Canadian
Tire, but “in British Columbia it's a fact of life.”

Steadman says it's a question of personal freedom.

“Many of the employees have no personal desire to join
this or any other union,” he said. “On the other hand, I have
no objection to those who do join a union.”

The union maintains Canadian Tire's head office in
Toronto is behind the fight, financing and directing the
Prince George store because it wants to keep the union out.

19-week strike

‘This isn’t a fight launched by Tom Steadman,” says
Allard. “He is told what to do by the corporation.

“There's no question about it because no reasonable
businessman would take this position.”

Steadman denies the union allegations, saying they're
made out of frustration and not fact.

The U.S.-based union has 100,000 Canadian members —
8,500 in B.C. — and represents workers at nine locations in
Prince George, including a grocery store and a building
supplies store.

Canadian Tire was incorporated in Ontario in 1927 and
the first franchise store was opened in 1934. The majority of
shares are held by Martha and Fred Billes of Ontario.

Like most retail chains in Canada, few Canadian Tire
operations are unionized and the Prince George strike is the
first in the company’s history.

BUSINESS DO

The union says about 35 strikers, who receive $100 a
week in strike pay, actively picket the store and have

in cutting business by 60 per cent. The company

says only 15 people continue to picket and business is down
25 per cent.

The B.C. Federation of Labor has issued a provincewide
boycott against the company and the union may apply to the
Canadian Labor Congress for a nationwide boycott.

Allard is confident the union will win.

“I see this being resolved by us negotating a collective
agreement that has union security, seniority and that has
the wage and fringe benefits the people and employer can
live with. There's going to be no collective agreement
without some form of union security.”

Steadman says it's difficult to predict the outcome.

“It's my feeling that there's an attitude change in Prince
George. As a group of consumers, we're all fed up and tried
of strike activities of any kind.

“I think we'd like to see the communit: and I think
boil realize business isn't automatically the bed guy every

B.C. Rail
bridge
a battle

PRINCE GEORGE (CP)
- A road and rail bridge

across the Fraser River at
the edge of this central In-
terior city is a $14 million
symbol of the once strife-torn
British Columbia Railway.

It was completed in 1962
by Northwood Pulp and Tim-
ber Ltd. when it doubled the
capacity of its pulp mill at a
cost of $300 million.

Northwood pulp is served
by B.C. Rail, a Crown cor-
poration. The bridge was
built by the mill as insurance
— to connect it with Can-
adian National Railways
tracks on the other side of
the river.

“It was so frustrating —
we would be shut down be-
cause of a strike on B.C. Rail-
way and yet we could see the
trains méving on the other
side,” recalls Alex Murray,
Northwood’s manager of cor-
porate distribution.

“When we decided to ex-
pand, it just made so much
sense to us to build a bridge.
We had a tremendous battle
with the provincial govern-
ment to do it because we had
to have Department of High-
ways’ approval but we finally
convinced them.

“It never would have been
possible in the days of
W.A.C. Bennett (former B.C.
premier) because he always
said the west side of the
Fraser belonged to the BCR
and the east side to the CNR
— and never the two should
meet. But it gives us the as-
surance we need that we can
get our raw materials in and
our finished products out.”

Labor problems have been,
in the opinion of many of
B.C. Rail's customers, the
railway’s biggest problem.

But they say management,
led by president Mac Norris,
the first non-political chief in
the railway’s history, has
succeeded in improving labor
relations to the point where
disruptions are minimal.

The last strike on the rail-
way lasted 39 days, ending in
January 1960.

B.C. Rail was the subject of
some controversy in Febru-
ary when the provincial gov-
ernment, in a move con-
demned by business leaders,
alloted $470 million in its
budget to help pay for the
railway’s “historic debt.”

“Morale is good. We can go
ahead and do our job,” says
Al Shannon, operations and
maintenance manager for the
railway. “We used to have a
high turnover but, when a
man joins the railway today,
he knows he won't be home
two days later because some
S.0.B. has put up a picket
line.”

Se

pected that these grades will
